Chu Qian gazed at Xiao Ning in front of her with gentle eyes. She was keenly aware of the unconcealable uneasiness and anxiety emanating from him. So, she gently raised her hand, patted the back of Xiao Ning's hand gently, and signaled him to sit down first with her eyes. Then, she quietly and attentively waited for him to open his heart to confide his troubles.
Xiao Ning raised the corners of his mouth slightly, gave Chu Qian a warm smile, and said softly: "Mother, do you still remember when I was six years old, I once ran away from the Xiao Mansion alone?"
Hearing this, Chu Qian couldn't help but recall that past event. A trace of emotion emerged on her face, and she slowly replied: "Of course I remember. You were so young back then, and you ran away alone without saying a word. It really scared your mother! I still remember it clearly. Yue'er didn't take good care of you at that time. When she found out that you were missing, she cried so hard! I took a lot of effort to comfort her. It was as hard as when I coaxed you back then. It made me very tired!"
After hearing what his mother said, Xiao Ning couldn't help but chuckle, with a hint of shame on his face. He scratched his head and said sheepishly, "Mom, I'm really sorry for you back then. When I was a kid, I was so naughty and ignorant, and I made you worry so much."
Chu Qian shook her head gently, touched Xiao Ning's hair lovingly, and said comfortingly:
"Oh, that happened many years ago, let it go. But now that you've grown up, you're still a cause for concern! You run away from home all the time. In the past, you would only be away for a day or two and then come back obediently, but now, you've been running away for two or three months. Compared to before, you've become even more outrageous!"
Xiao Ning's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a slightly awkward smile. At the same time, Chu Qian smiled and started her journey of memories, talking endlessly about the good times she spent with Xiao Ning when she was a child.
As the story unfolded, Chu Qian became more and more excited. She couldn't help but lean her body gently on Xiao Ning's broad shoulders, tightly holding his warm and powerful hands, and said softly:
"Ning'er, the best thing I've ever done in my life is giving birth to such an excellent child like you!"
Xiao Ning listened quietly to his mother's sincere words, and he couldn't help but feel touched in his heart. He slowly stretched out his hand, gently pressed on Chu Qian's weak shoulder, and responded with a firm look:
"Mother, having a perfect mother like you is the greatest happiness in my life. Thank you for giving me a carefree and happy childhood; thank you for your tolerance and care for me; and thank you for loving me without reservation. In the next period of time, mother, please take good care of yourself. If you find someone cheating on you, please don't be angry with her, okay?"
Chu Qian raised her head and stared into Xiao Ning's eyes. She keenly noticed that there seemed to be some special meaning hidden in Xiao Ning's words. She asked suspiciously, "Ning'er...what's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly say these words?"
However, at this moment, a strong feeling of dizziness suddenly hit Chu Qian like a surging tide, quickly drowning her consciousness. In an instant, she felt dizzy and her head felt as if it had been hit hard by a heavy hammer. The scene in front of her gradually became blurred, and even Xiao Ning's figure close at hand was difficult to recognize clearly.
Xiao Ning gently held the delicate body tightly in his arms, his heart full of reluctance and attachment, and stared at her beautiful face like a poem and a painting with deep affection and pain.
"Mother, don't blame Ning'er. If I can return safely this time, I will never be separated from you for a moment again!" Xiao Ning's words were like the softest breeze in spring, carrying endless tenderness and sweetness, gently brushing past Chu Qian's ears.
Then, Xiao Ning closed his eyes slightly and began to whisper a mysterious and ancient spell. As the spell sounded, a faint red light suddenly shone on Chu Qian's chest, like a bright meteor across the sky. Gradually, the red light gathered into a delicate and beautiful flame shaped like a lotus, blooming with charming brilliance in the darkness.
This lotus flame is Xiao Ning's original fire, which contains his powerful strength and soul imprint. At this moment, Xiao Ning is determined to take back his own power.
His movements were as gentle as if he was protecting a rare treasure, and he carefully placed Chu Qian on the bed. Then, he took out a letter that he had prepared long ago from his arms and gently placed it on the pillow. After doing this, he took a deep look at the sleeping Chu Qian, his eyes full of reluctance, but in the end he resolutely turned around and left.
Just as Xiao Ning was about to step out of the gate of Xia Mansion, a graceful figure suddenly appeared in front of him like a ghost, blocking his way. Xiao Ning's heart was shocked, and he looked over quickly. After seeing who it was, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile.
Nangong Luoyu looked at Xiao Ning intently, her beautiful face filled with anger.
"You said goodbye to them all, why didn't you say goodbye to me alone?" There was a hint of resentment in her voice.
"I..." Xiao Ning's eyes were a little evasive. He didn't know how to answer Nangong Luoyu's question.
In fact, the reason why Xiao Ning did not say goodbye to Nangong Luoyu alone was mainly because Nangong Luoyu was a cultivator in the Void Refinement Realm and was very powerful. In addition, she had a trace of Xiao Ning's soul in her body, so she would not be easily knocked unconscious by Xiao Ning.
Just as Xiao Ning was secretly thinking about how to get rid of Nangong Luoyu's entanglement, she walked quickly forward and came in front of Xiao Ning. Her movements were light and graceful, like a dancing butterfly. Then, she blocked Xiao Ning's lips with her soft little mouth, and suddenly a sharp pain went straight to Xiao Ning's heart.
